we have capacity do make personal decisions about your everyday life, capacity to make healthcare decisions and then capacity to make decisions about financial transactions. and what we have learned as betsy said is that financial capacity -- it's been called the can anywhere re in the coal mine of capacity. really the first to go. and it's made up of a number of skills. it includes your basic monetary ability. identifying and counting money, understanding debt and loans, conducting cash transactions, paying bills, and then i want to underline this last one, because this neuropsychologist have done research and tiedfied this one component of financial capacity is maintaining judgment to act prudently and avoid financial exploitation. so you can see when financial capacity starts to go, people become more vulnerable. and the population numbers, not to throw a lot of numbers out you, but they're pretty astounding. declining financial skills start to happen when people have mild cognitive impairment. 22% of americans age 71 and holder have mild cognitive impairment. so that's a lot of people.
